I used to know this old dude, Pete. He lived to be 100. He was 97-98-99 y.o and still hitting the bar scene downtown. Old head would come in soused and yell "PLAY SOME ROCK N ROOOOOOLLLL!!!" over and over. H was the life of the party cause what guy that old you ever see do that? He started...
:LOL: I used to get my ass beat in middle school for not tight rolling girbaud jeans or having brown suede mesa drivers, but they were a product of Minnetonka moccasin back then. Same design and cleats though. It was a different world.:LOL:
Figures you'd rip it up. Par for the course. I've never met a Nashville area picker that couldn't rip shit up on a guitar. Oh wait....lemme guess.....you'll say "I'm just a couch picker". You guys are so fulla crap. I only stayed in Nashville less than a year but I heard that one about a million...
Shit, nice tone Dan. That does sound like some real Harley Davidson and the Marlboro man stuff right there. Now the biggest jerk is gonna hate you even more. :LOL:

He did though.
You don't get that wealthy selling piece of shit cars, non existent solar roofs, and battery packs for garage walls. I've been saying he was the ultimate grifter since before he was a conservative hero. He was the tech-greenie hero circa 2012 and he was FOS then just like today...
Well watching a guy like Musk pretend like he's some uber sharp businessman when all he's sold is a few junk cars is kinda amusing. Without the government cash grab he would not be making the same kinda money. It's all graft.
Agreed. If you cannot find contentedness with what you have then having more will not make you feel successful either.
Well if you want to make a small fortune in the music business you start with a large fortune lol. But if we are talking outside of music I would probably make a few real...
Wardell "Steph" Curry is rich. The guy who signs Wardell's check is "wealthy". There is the difference.
For what it's worth, the people I have known who have the most cash are complete workaholics. They might not be "on the job" assholes and elbows type work but they prioritize moneymaking...
